Blueberry Tart

This blueberry tart is full of delicious, plump blueberries on a sweet cookie crust.

Blueberries are healthy, right? Therefore this tart is actually good for you, and you should eat it. All. Which is basically what we did. In one evening, 4 people managed to polish off the entire thing.

This Blueberry Tart did double duty last weekend for both Easter dinner and my mom’s birthday. My mom loves fruity desserts, so I thought this would be perfect.

I got the recipe directly from Martha Stewart and stuck with it for the most part. I did have some Meyer lemons kicking around still, so I used the juice from those as well as regular lemons.

This is a really simple recipe, and I loved that there was a video on Martha’s site to show the process step by step. I’m more of a visual learner, so seeing something is better than reading about it.

The only issue I had with this recipe was the crust. It didn’t quite come together like I expected. It looked nothing like the tart he takes out of the fridge at about 2:12 in the video. Granted, it didn’t look as bad as the one he put in there at the same time… that should have been a red flag. I had a hard time pressing the crust into the tart pan and getting it to stick together. It was super crumbly and it felt too dry. I did the best I could and stuck it in the freezer.

The other issue I had was when I started to poke the tart shell with a fork before baking. I’m not sure if the tines on my fork are too large or what, but the tart shell was basically crumbing when I did this, and I had to press it back together in parts. Again, nothing like in the video!

Thankfully it turned out alright once I baked it. Whew. The filling was super easy to do. All in all, this is a really quick and easy recipe! I would definitely make it again, and maybe experiment with different berries or a mixture of berries.

Hi Olivia! The blueberry tart (In my case…a blueberry pie was deelisshhh! I took it to a family bbq on my husband’s side of the family, Everyone loved it. So Sunday afternoon, we decided to have a few folks over for coffee and guess what? More blueberry tart (pie). So I made another pie using your tart recipe and then I decided to use the tart from Saturday (the big cookie) and made it too, The tart shell was was hard to cut,. Tasted excellence though, I went through 18 cups of blueberries in two days. Thankfully I have a blueberry farm close by.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for all of your creations, everyone that I have tried has been absolutely delicious and scrumptious and mouth watering great!!!!!!

Hi Olivia! I just made the crust and like you mine was crumbly too. When I took it out of the oven it was basically one big flat cookie, not much of an edge to it at all. I was afraid that all my blueberries would roll out, so, plan B. I had taken out homemade pie dough from the freezer yesterday. So it will be a blueberry pie. I’m going to try to 1/2 the filling from this recipe and put on my crust “cookie”. At least the crust won’t be a waste. Yours looks absolutely beautiful. I find myself looking forward to receiving your recipes every week. Thanks😊

One of the many things I miss about my rural East Coast Canadian upbringing is picking gorgeous plump, wild blueberries off the hill. The flavour was incomparable! They would have gone really well in this beautiful tart – I can see why it was polished off so quickly!!

Oh wow, this Blueberry Tart looks divine! I would have to agree, this must be healthy because of all the blueberries 🙂 lol. And, your tart shell looks absolutely perfect, so I’m not sure what in the world you are talking about there! Sheer perfection going on with this tart. Thanks for sharing! Cheers!
